Dear SW Staff: Some members are keen on the group inception, being a VIP feature. But hold on just a moment please:
1. I don't want most of the 'benefits' that come with being a VIP, I have exactly zero desire to know who is stalking me. ZERO.
Not a cogent idea in this light.

2. Now, if you want to invest in a secondary kind of VIP2 or VIPG, for new groups only, that's something I can entertain.
I'd want a VIP, with the sole conditions of, creating my own groups and having more blocks and mutes.

3. So, my suggestion also is, for the VIP, can we please choose the features we want, tailor it to our needs? That's an absolutely STELLAR idea.

***ADDENDUM: In principle I am against VIP period.
I don't want to pay and I don't want to loose benefits, etc.
However IF you insist that groups are a VIP feature, this is what I propose. [b]IF[/b]...
(See above)
@LunadelobosIAMTHEDRAGON VIP's do have a choice though... they either use the features offered or they don't.

Your yuck is someone else's yum.
@LunadelobosIAMTHEDRAGON why should group creation be a VIP feature?
Most of the groups I want are catered for anyway...

@Elizabeth28 That's not the point I'm trying to make.

You have the free will to choose to click on "Profile visitors" just as easily as you can choose not to. You can still use ad free or whatever else floats your boat without checking your profile visitors.

Equally, I have the freedom to check my profile visitors and stalk the people I want to stalk without filling their profile visitors section up.
@TheSirfurryanimalWales No. I am countering what so many are saying , they want it VIP. I don't agree.

But if the SW admin make it a VIP, it ought to be a separate VIP.

I am NOT for VIP for group making, not at all.........................
@HootyTheNightOwl what ever then .... no one is forcing yall to be vip is all il say seem u both hate sw so you can leave if ya want u kn ...........
@Elizabeth28 Why don't you go back to Reddit with the rest of them???
@HootyTheNightOwl [quote]VIP's do have a choice though... they either use the features offered or they don't.
[/quote] I had no idea it is optional.
Thank you for informing me.
